Notes
It is rare with seven lights on the candelabrum for a woman's grave.


We had hoped this was the gravestone  of Rifka GABEL nee BODENSTEIN, based on her
 greatgreatgrandson Moshe Pakman's correspondence with the USC in Lubaczow.
But according to the indexed  death register,  Rifka GABEL died on Oct 6th 1915, which is Tishri 28th 5676.  This must be rechecked.

Rivka was the wife of Simcha Benjamin GABEL. He  died in May 1915 and is buried in Row 9, Grave 8.
